Newspapers and Slang.


We believe in what is generally called
slang" There are but two ways in which
a language can grow one Is by borrowing
from other languages. and the other is by
admitting new words and expressions
born of the people If the boycotters of
slang had had their way in times past.
the English language would have lost most
of its vigor and nervy force. The best
part of il has come warm from the peo-
